Denied. Yet AnSWarad.

When Augustine, in his home in
Carthage, resolved to visit Rome, his
mother wished either to prevent him from
going or to 60 with him. He would listeu
to neither proposal, and resorted to a
trick to carry out his plan. One evening
he went to the sea-shore, and his mother
followed. There were two chapels' dedi
Gated to the memory of the martyr Cy.
prian, and be pressed her TO spend one
evening in the church of the martyr
while he would accompany a friend on
board ship, there to say farewell. While
she was there in tears, praying and wrest
ling with God to prevent the voyage
Augustine sailed for Italy, and his de-
ceived mother found herself next morning
alone. In quiet resignation she returned
to the city and continued to pray for the
salvation of her son. Though meaning
we'll, yet she had erred in her prayer, fol
the journey of Augustine was the means
of his salvation. The denial of the praye,
was, in fact, the answering OF it. Instead
of the husk, God granted rather the sub
stance of her petition in the conversion ol
her son. therefore," said he, "there
fore, o God, hadst thou regard to the aim
and essence of her desires, and didst no,
do what she then prayed for, that thou
mightest do for me what she continually =
implored."

Pensions to N. C. Confederate, Soldiers

The State Auditor is now deep into the
work of arranging for the paying of pen
sions, warrants for which will soon be is-
sued to the pensioners. In his last report
to the Legislature tue Auditor says:
'rhe annual appropriation made by The
General Assembly tor the relief Of Con-
federate soldiers, ETC., under an act rati.
fed the llth day of March, 1885, has been
apportioued and distributed, pro rata, to
2,l27 claimants, of which number 1880
are soldiers aud l l,O97 are the widows OF
deceased soldiers. The whole number of
applicants, however, under the act, ,aggre-
gates 1891, and it will be seen that 2,264
OF these claims were rejected by the State
Board, consisting OF the Governor, Attor.
ney General aud Auditor. In this
connection, will say that the State Board
has had difficulty 10 understanding, from
the wording of the statute, whether the
widows of soldiers who died from natural
causes are entitled to the benefits of the
appropriation"
This last clause led to the adoption OF
an amendment TO the pension law making
the widows Of those who had died from
disease while in the Confederate service
pensioners OF the State from the appro-
priatlon.
Under this new law many more appli-
cations tor pensions have been made and
accepted. Last year the amount received
by each pensioner was $l4.lO. 1t will be
somewhat less this year as the number OF
pensioners have increased without any in.
crease in the pension appropriation. 1t is
not yet known what the amount pro rata
| will be.
There seems to be an opinion with the
State Auditor that only soldiers should
draw pensions, and that widows should
not be included in the pension list. This
would be more advantageous at large than
the present system, as the almost totally
| disabled soldiers could receive larger quo
tas and be much more benefited.
Some warrants are also being drawn
for another class of pensioners under sec
| tions 3477 and 3478 of the Code, which
provide that in cases where soldier lost
his sight, or both limbs or both feet in
the Confederate service, a pension of $l2O
shall be paid. These cases are not numer
GUS, but a few warrants in such cases have
recently been drawn.-Rdleigh Observer

How does this Please You?

Ne see in al extract from q Georgia
paper that gentleman in Fayette county
bad about one fourth OF an acre Of marshy
land. that bred pestilence TO man and
beast, and his good wife feeling that she
needed little medicsment to off sci the
evil influences of the small plot of marshy
ground, planted some calamus in it; the
calamus spread and grew luxuriantly, the
malaria arising from the marsh was coun-
teracted, and the crop of calamus is about
to turn out 10 be mine of wealth. Last
year the gentleman sold about $1,000
worth of calamus off this quarter of an
acre of ground, and he now has far over
$3 900 worth of it which he will deliver az
soon as he can dry it. The owner of this
little marshy ground says that it is worth
more to him than the rest of his large
farm. If you have a small plot of ground
suited to the growth of this plant try it

Great Poor Boys.

Our old friend, Mr. J. H. Mills, Supt. of
the Orphange at Thomasville, N. c., is
publishing little paper called "Charity
and Children" 1t has much good read
ing, and we copy the following:
every brilliant has been the galaxy OF
the military biographies published since
the Confederate war. On this account
less notice has been taken of lives devoted
to peace. And yet, some remarkable
religious biographies have appeared and
will be read by future generations. These
are Needham's Life of SpurgeoD, DIR.
Palmer's Life of DR.. Thornwell, DR.. Fin.
ney's Life Of Bishop Marvin, and DR..
Hatcher's Life of DR.. Jeter. Spurgeon,
Thornwell, Marvin and Jeter were all
poor boys. Their struggles with poverty
will be mentioned hereafter.
Bishop Marvin was very poor, even for
years after entering the ministry. Some
times his annual salary was less than a
hundred dollars. Yet, he gradually grew
into the Hercules of Methodism. Bishop
Marvin's greatness is partly attributed to
his Just conception and lucid statements
of the proper uses of money. He says
"After food and raiment and habitatiou
are provided and the Christian education
of our children. and the preaching of the
gospel at home, with proper basis fol
our private business, what money remains
over will go inevitably to the support and
enlargement of the Wicked One, or to ex
tend the domain and enhance the glory ol
the Son of God. 1t will be boarded by
avarice, or squandered in sensual or sinful
pleasures, and to pamper pride, unless il
is expended for the. aid of the poor, the
diffusion OF Christian knowledge, and the
propagation of the gospel in the regions
beyond" ...-.
Money in the hands of Gods people
will be snare and an occasion of back
sliding, and of their eternal ruin, unless
they put it into active service 10 the work
of saving souls.
Bishop Marvin contributed to every
good cause presented, and often went be
yond what others considered his duty
And ut his death he had an appointment
to preach to orphans"

The Case of Duncan Hay wood at Raleigh.


The trial of this case was resumed in the
Wake Superior Court yesterday. It will
be remembered that in 1885 Duncan Hay
wood was indicted for forgery 10 several
instances and brought before the court.
q court of inquiry, in which a verdict of
insanity was returned, and Haywood was
sent to the insane asylum. On the fol-
lowing day Judge Clark set the verdict of
the jury aside and Haywood was brought
from the asylum, tried for forgery and re-
ceived a sentence to the penitentiary for a
term of years. A motion was made for 8
new trial, which motion was refused.
Haywood then appealed to the Supreme
Court. This tribunal set aside the ruling
of the lower court on q technality-it be-
ing that one of the grand jury which
found the bill of indictment had not paid
his taxes-and ordered new trial. This
was continued from time TO time until the
present. Haywood is now being tried
under the following issue: SIS the de-
fendant, Duncan G. Haywood, now insane
and incapable of conducting his defence
in this Indictment" and great interest is
being manifested. The case has been
much talked OF and was SO generally
known that it was with difficulty that a
jury was secured on yesterday, almost
the entire morning being consumed in
making it up.-Rateiqh Observer, 18Th.
